STOCKs-Tbe stock market made further
progress in the directiOn'Of higher figures
to-day, Western Union being che leader,
both as to activity and strength. The I'M
provement in the feeling on the street was
most marked and the bull sentiment ran
high, especially in Western Union and
Lake Shore. The advance was almost con-
tinuOus throughout the day, and Manhat-
tan seems to have lost its power to al
feet the remainder of the list, as 1t
was rather weak. As on yesterday, several
rumors were circulated which had a reas-
surfing effect upon the street, most OF them
referring TO the Baltimore and Ohio deal,
and the impression that Western Union
would be found in control Of the telegraph
business was again very strong. The bull
ish interests of Mr.. Gould, combined with
the increasing ease of money, which closed
| offered at l per cent, and renewed buying
for London account. were all factors III
the improvement. First prices were made
Mt advances Over last evenings final
figures extending TO = per cent. The
market was extremely active, but
somewhat irregular in early dealings and
| at figures q shade lower than the opening.
| Western Union, Pacific Mail, and Wander
bits, however, early became prominent
for strength. and the advance continued
until nearly noon. when Manhatton broke
4 Der cent, with little or no effect, now
ever, upon the remainder of the list. After
a short period Of heaviness the advance
was renewed with force, Western Union,
Reading, and Jersey Central, being most
conspicuous. The rise eliminated
shortly before 9 p. M, when
many stocks had reached the
highest prices for the day. Liberal
| realizations caused a slight reaction in the
last hour, but the market again became
strong before the close, the buying II
Western Union being specially heavy, ano
the market closed active and strong, at oil
near the highest prices reached. Sales,
45O, 72O shares. Everything is higher this
evening, and in the active list fractional.
